project user.lua require statement only for project specific Modules

Question

I have maintained my user.lua project folder specific. Is there anything in place where I can exclude Zerobrane's env path when I check a Module require statement with "Evaluate in Console"?

The reason for this is , i will ensure that everything is working within the plugin Engine himself.

This is what would be checked for a missing Module lualibs and bin is cerobrane specific, if I see it right

Output

local toast = require("toast")
[string "    local toast = require("toast")"]:1: module 'toast' not found:
    no field package.preload['toast']
    no file 'lualibs/toast.lua'

You should get the desired effect if toast module file is located in your project directory. When a command is executed in the Console, the current directory is set to the project directory, so even though lualibs folder from the IDE may be in the path, it should make no difference (unless you copied the module to lualibs).
